Prometric Services: Testing an Assessment
U.S. Foreign Policy Compliance Statement
Prometric, including its foreign subsidiaries and locations, must comply with all sanctions/restrictions imposed by the US Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).
As of
December 1, 2007, the following guidelines apply:
A. Prohibition Against Delivery of Tests in Sanctioned Countries:
The United States has imposed sanctions against doing business with certain countries. Prometric may not deliver tests (either through IT testing sites (APTCs), AP&C testing sites (PTCs), Internet-based testing sites, or mobile testing) in any of the countries listed below:
- Cuba
- Iran
- North Korea
- Sudan
- Syria
B. Testing Citizens of Sanctioned Countries Outside the Sanctioned Country / Payment Originating Outside the Sanctioned Countries:
Prometric may deliver tests to citizens of the sanctioned countries listed below provided the citizens are tested outside the sanctioned country and payment for the test originates outside the sanctioned country:
Prometric may not accept payment originating from a bank or financial institution in the above-listed countries.
For Example: If an Iranian citizen presents him/herself at a testing center in a non-sanctioned country and produces ID with an Iranian address and payment drawn on an Iranian bank, we may not deliver a test to that individual. Should the same Iranian citizen present ID at a testing center in a non-sanctioned country with an Iranian address and payment drawn from a bank originating from a non-sanctioned country, we may deliver a test to that individual.
C. Testing Citizens of Sanctioned Countries Outside the Sanctioned Country / Payment Originating Inside or Outside the Sanctioned Country:
